A Bald Eagle at Great Falls National Park in Maryland. This was my first trip and it was great. The Falls are impressive but there was also a lot of bird activity.
This is one of the 3 eagles that are nesting on the small island up river from the falls.

Great catch, Jon!
Bald eagle is so incredible and you had captured
the most fascinating activity of him… in-flight in the fishing posture!

Oh my! What an amazing shot!
I've been to Great Falls (Maryland side) twice recently - but no bald eagles. Any hints as to where to look?
(I've really enjoyed the Great Blue Herons, but... I'd really love to see the bald eagles!)
